Worth the $?

Best brand?

Best model of that brand for the $?

Thanks in advance. I think I am in the market for a decent caller...….want to buy good used at a price that I can flip it easily if it does not work out.

FoxPro is by FAR the leader in calls.
Fury is what I have. Lots of critters have died over it.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

I have an Icotec gc500, have used it twice and called coyotes in both times. Have heard some complain it isnt loud enough but it works for me.

Wildlife technologies has by far the best sounds available but the customer service is terrible. I had a problem with my antenna and they didn't want to sell me one. They wanted me to buy a new call. I sold it as is and bought a Fox Pro CS24b and have killed a lot of coyotes with it. I like where you can put what ever sounds you want on it as with the W.T. call you get what is on it. Fox Pro is the way to go. I never owned the others mentioned above so I don't know about them.

FoxPro Fusion is the best electronic caller I have ever used. If you go to AllPredatorCall.com you can get a factory refurbished and save quite a bit of money. Mine was $150 off the regular price.

This is a big issue - FoxPro callers use proprietary sounds, so if you want more they are expensive. The Fusion model will accept any MP3 sound so if you “find” other sounds elsewhere they can go right on.

Here is a tip to remember. Remove the batteries from the caller and remote when finished. It is easy to forget about them in the spring and then next fall find something corroded.

I have a FoxPro Prarie Blaster with 300 plus calls on it. Lots of coyotes, fox and cats have lost their skins because of it. Countless crows also.

I bought a refurbished Foxpro FX5 around 7 years ago and it still runs like a new one. I have 200 sounds on it. I paid $250 for it. Pair it up with Night Eyes lights and you’re good to go

I do like the FoxPro brand but.
Alot of that has do do with the remote, not just the call.
There new remotes are WAY more advanced than any others.
I call alone most often and many times I'll position the call and go 200 yards downwind.
Try that with any other brand wink

I have the Icotec. I really like being able to run the call up to 300 yards away with the hand held remote.
It also has a push button to stop or start the fur teaser. I think mine is plenty loud.

you guys that set up and move 200 yards how do you do that undetected? I have a hard time sneaking into a stand and using a mouth call without getting "busted". A coyote has to be the most alert animal in N. America.
